A first look at When Consent Arrives: A moonlit story about greetings, choices and speaking up. Max and Sam have one sunset job: hang their silver paper moon above the neighbourhood welcome arch. When Ruby expects their old moon-hug, hiding and hurrying send the lantern rolling through the gardens in a scarf of runaway bunting. A clear no, a bell-ring hello and one specific request for adult support help Max put greetings in a new order: pause, ask and listen first. A warm, comic SEL story about consent, body ownership, alternative greetings and making room for every person's answer. This picture-book story is in production. The complete print edition is not yet available to order.
